Finally finished
« on: July 24, 2012, 10:57:09 pm »
After cutting all the parts, then having to store them in a box for 6 weeks while I moved twice, I've finally finished my Train Depot Clock.  157 parts plus the movement, sound and electronics, and I'm done... Thanks to Dirk for excellent plans, diagrams and instructions - it was a pleasure to build.  



Here's a link to a low-quality 1 minute video of the clock in action:

Now that is a real cool clock!!  Love the sound affects.  You did a fantastic job and should be proud of it.

AWESOME - is the only word for it.
